Hi There!
In C# you can use /// to add comments that can produce XML documentation.
What about in VB????
Thanks,

Sorry you feel that way. I'm posting to C# newsgroup because C#
programmers has access built-in documentation functionality and when they program
with VB.NET they will definitely look for a workaround, while native VB.NET
programmers who never used C# probably have no clue about XML
documentation that I'm talking about.
And seriously, why documentation support for VB.NET has been not
included but only for C#? I thought VS.NET is suppose to be one IDE for all
languages without discrimination?
I hope it helps.

Any reason you send this to the C# newsgroup maybe you have a good
reason, however it gives me only the idea you only want to create a trolling
thread.

Don,
Do not forget that the VBNet has background compiling while typing, which
makes the need for this kind of documentation "less" important.
The languages are maybe quiet the same, the IDE part definitely is not, the
developing teams went real in a different direction with that.
You are maybe right because I think that VBNet programmers expect the same
comfort from the C# IDE as it is with VBNet and probably it is visa versa
about the documentation system.
(Before it is flamed, especially on older computers is the C# IDE faster)

Why? I don't see the connection at all. If I need to know what a method
does, just being able to compile code in the background isn't going to
tell me what I need to know. Could you explain why you see the two
things as being related?

Humans have intelisense as well, when I get a signal from the IDE that it is
right written I mostly look a little bit "less" to the documentation. When
it goes wrong than I go deeper in the documentation.
However maybe that is as well a typical difference from an Alpha and a Beta.

I proposed python as the main language for our next CAD/CAM

for it. I'm not sure yet if the decision will get through, but
something I'll need in this case is some experience-based set
of rules about how to use python in this context.
For example... is defining readonly attributes in classes
worth the hassle ? Does duck-typing scale well in complex

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
